Well I'm shocked - did you mean PH but typo'ed as cab?



I'm making soup at the moment, those carrots are hard b*stards....if I was a vegetable (and the jury is out on that one), I wouldnt want to pick a fight with a carrot.

Errm....he blusters......I was just saving time....using the ubiquitous expression.

We have the same language issue in Plymouth in both hack and ph arenas and it is a major issue of contention with some customers who complain that drivers can't even recognise road names, one was reported to have handed the customer their tom tom in order for them to input their address!!!
